Joy Gonnerman is a Evangelical Lutheran Church in America pastor. She ‏is active on social media, posting her opinions and articles that are anti-Trump or about liberal social justice, but she seems most passionate about posting articles critical of Israel. (See here)

Below is one egregious example of a tweet by ELCA Rev. Joy Gonnerman.

Sara Villarreal Bishop is a vicar to the Estonian Lutheran Church at ELCA Global Mission. A month ago the ELCA leader wrote a Facebook post that in part said, "I am a Christian who thinks that organized religion has seen its time and needs to go gently into that good night. We’re not doing it right. We’re making it worse. But I also believe people are seeking something greater than themselves because we are greater than ourselves, and I want to help them find THEIR way, not mine. God is big enough for that. And I'm both, Christian and ... well, not." (see her full post below)

​Kevin Beebe is an ELCA "Pastor-to-Be" studying at the ELCA'sPacific Lutheran Theological Seminary. He loves to post LGBT supportive information, Palestinian propaganda against Israel, and anti-Trump materials on social media. This is the type of pastor the ELCA has, and is producing to lead your congregation.

The ELCA seminarian supports the BDS movement, which advocates boycotts, divestment, and sanctions against Israel, as you see below.
​

Here future pastor Beebe complains about Israel building an underground wall to prevent Palestinian terrorist tunnels used to invade and kill Israelis. That is mind-numbing stupid.

Time to stop this violence from occupying soldiers. End the Israeli occupation. Looking at you, @realDonaldTrump. Stop defunding hospitals and schools, rather stop selling guns to Israel.https://t.co/c0mO9okTRQ

If globalism is bad, @POTUS@realDonaldTrump, then how about we stop our activity in one of largest ways the USA contributes: arms sales. Stop selling weapons around the world, particularly to occupying nations like Israel.

The ELCA's Reformation Lutheran Church in Columbia, SC offered an adult Sunday school class called "Being Thankful for Ourselves: LGBTQIA+ Affirmations." As you can see, it was very affirming of homosexuality and transgenderism.

Dan G. Olson is a retired ELCA pastor living in Wisconsin. He studied at the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America's Luther Seminary. (Class of 1971)

We all know the ELCA seminaries are filled with liberal, Bible-rejecting seminarians waiting to become ELCA pastors. But Rev. Dan G Olson reminds us that liberal and partisan pastors have been serving the ELCA for many years. Look at what he has been posting on his Facebook page this year. See his view of people who want to defund Planned Parenthood and believe marriage is between one man and one woman. Also notice the view of those who are supporters of President Trump in the second post. ​
